Take Five brings together all of Kenneth McClane's poetry published since 1971, and reissues, for the first time, the privately-printed Running Before the Wind, his first collection of verse. Considered by many to be the finest Afro-American poet of his generation, McClane's works have been published in many of the nation's leading magazines. In his introduction to this volume, McClane candidly reveals some of his thoughts on what it means to be a poet, and what he feels about his own work in particular.
